From Curbed, 10/25/17, Preparing for our prefab future, subtitled "A burgeoning U.S. prefab market has much to learn from Japan:":
Immediately after construction on [modular 461 Dean] was finished, Forest City Ratner sold the factory and all its associated technology.Well, sure. But that doesn't mean there were any other bidders, and the lack of any sale price announced suggests it could have been a fire sale. As I wrote on Twitter: "Alternatively: no one else but Krulak willing 2buy it."
They didn’t have to look far for a buyer. Roger Krulak was an executive at the company who led the Brooklyn project, and he thought the factory-based building approach could still work.
